Scholarship Campaign Aims to Raise $5 Million for Snow Students

By Janie Harris

Snow College is relentless in its commitment to student success. Knowing that the largest barrier for many students is a financial one, President Brad Cook announced the $5 million Reimagine Scholarship Campaignduring his 2019 inauguration. The sole purpose of this campaign is to support students who would likely not be able to attend college without financial assistance. This campaign will end on December 31, 2020, although donations received after this date will continue supporting the scholarship effort.

Over $4.7 million has been raised so far due to the incredible support and generosity of our donors, who have given more than 3,000 gifts to the campaign. A special note of appreciation is extended to Terry and Nancy Foote for making Snow College history by giving the largest private donation that the College has ever received. A sincere thank you is also extended to all other Snow College donors and supporters. Without the support and generosity of so many individuals who believe in Snow’s mission, this effort would be impossible.

“Snow College has been the best experience for me because of the support I continually receive. One of the things I am most grateful for during my time at Snow is the generous scholarships I have received. From a young age, my parents told me it was my responsibility to pay for my education, therefore, I knew I needed to start saving for college. Getting an education has always been a top priority for me, so I made sure to push myself and do anything needed to graduate. Thanks to Snow and the financial assistance of scholarship donors, I have been able to focus on my education and maintain good grades.”

SCHOLARSHIP CAMPAIGN

“Education has always been a big part of my life. However, without scholarships I do not think I would have been able to afford college. Thanks to the financial support from generous scholarship donors, I have been able to further my education and get closer to my academic goals. Because of this support, I can focus on school instead of stressing about finances.”
